Any Help Please for family and children of:-
Captain, John Hood
An advert dated 21 September 1778 indicates that the Ship called "Brothers", Captained by John Hood, along with other ships in a list traded between Selby and London.
Also stopping at many Yorkshire places (named). A regular return of the said ships from Selby to London. From the Gun-and-Shot Wharfe, Southwark, London to Selby and York, the advert states.
The following seem to be linked to John Hood:-
London and Surrey Bond marriage bond allegation 17 August 1778
John Hood parish of Scarborough, a mariner Widower to Sarah Hammond Widow
ref MS 10091E/91 (Not Seen)
Selby 10 April 1795 Elizabeth Turner Baptised 1st daughter of Charles & Morland.
... "Morland dau of John Hood of Selby, Mariner by Elizth his wife, dau of John Spencer of Scarbro', Mariner. Born 6th Apl"
Transcription - Not checked.
Morland Hood (or Maudland Hood, Spinster aged 20 Married Charles Turner at Selby 27 November 1794) was the daughter of John Hood of Selby, Mariner, with Elizabeth Spencer, whose Father was John Spencer of Scarborough.
There is an August 1803 Burial record at Selby of Jane Hood wife of John Hood, Mariner.
Also a burial of John Hood at Selby 4 April 1819 aged 82 (Occupation not given).
Question
My 4 x Gt Grandfather George Hood, Cooper, Tanner and Brewer was from Selby and married Sarah Russel in Selby 18 July 1815, both of this Parish, by Licence and Bond (dated 16 May 1815).
Although the Hood family remained at Selby when George Hood, Tanner and Brewer of Selby died 18 September 1845, aged 60 and two newspapers stating he was aged 63 years, there is oddly no burial for him at Selby, Brayton, or Barlby.
Are there any shipping records which give a Captain's children and could confirm if Captain John Hood was father to George Hood, please?
Thank you Mark
